None, zero, nada... Never heard about it either. Instead of $60, she pays $105/month for full coverage. She's insured with Nation Wide for 4 years. She called Geico and got the same answer and it was going to be even more expensive.

To those who say the police should have been called out to the accident, typically police will not show up to a minor accident unless someone is injured (or killed, but that almost never happens in a minor fender bender). What's SUPPOSED to happen is the parties are to exchange information and then contact the insurance company of the party at fault. In the case of a rear-ender (like this one), it's pretty clear who's at fault. An important thing to do, besides exchanging info, is to take pictures of the accident scene, even if it's just with a cell phone, so visual proof of the accident can be presented to the insurance company. I personally carry a compact digital camera with me everywhere I go, just in case of something like this, or if I see something interesting I want a pic of.

TX, and a police report is supposed to be filed, online if it's a minor fender bender and the police don't show up at the accident scene, as I explained in another post (#39) in this thread.

Actually, it's an accident report that's filed with the appropriate police agency where the accident occurred. And yes, when filing an insurance claim, the insurance company will ask for a copy of the filed accident report, whether it's prepared by the police or by the party to the accident.

This is some freaky stuff. I always hear that someone gets rear-ended or backed into when driving/parking around a Walmart, Jordan's Furniture, IKEA, grocery stores, or any other store mostly saturated with woman (no offense to CF woman). This is why I stopped going to these places or go at hours not considered to be peak times.
Any one else notice this?

Hi, I am new to this forum, I have been a member since december but have not made any posts until this one. I am a proud owner of a 02 Mil yellow coupe all stock except for the window valet I installed back in march. Anyway while on the way to Walmart while sitting at the stop light to turn left into walmart I was rear-ended by a lady driving a SUV. I got out of my car and noticed that there was not much damage to my car other some scrathes. I took her info and have decided to call and make a claim against her since I am not sure what else could be wrong. I know going to walmart in a vette is a bad idea 
but I have never had any problems and I always park away from everyone, plus it is a beautiful day. So would anyone else have filed a claim?
